Black Seele: Don't Cry, Seele! (Continued)
After all, in his heart, whether it's Dark Seele or White Seele, she's still Seele.
Moreover, he had anticipated this situation, so at this moment, Bai Ge was more curious than shocked.
(Hmm, as expected, the appearance doesn't change. The black hair and red eyes in the game are just features in the mental space, and to make it easier for the captain to distinguish her. In reality, her hair color, clothes, and eye color are all the same as Seele's.)
There was a slight regret, but more of a sense of novelty.
Seeing his beloved daughter behaving in a way completely different from usual, Bai Ge almost wanted to take out his phone and record it.
On the other side, Bronya had put down her computer assembly and was quietly observing the scene.
"Ugh~ How boring, what's the point of reading?"
Less than half a minute later, Dark Seele, who was straddling Bai Ge's lap, yawned.
Unlike White Seele, she didn't like reading at all; she would get sleepy and want to go to sleep after just a couple of glances.
Then she looked at the small table next to her with desserts and reached out to grab the cake with the most strawberries.
"It's so sweet, doesn't it taste like a thorn princess at all?"
"Hmm? What flavor would Seele like to eat?"
"This one is spicy, of course. These sweet ones aren't tasty at all, hmph~"
White Seele would have happily eaten the strawberry cake, but she only ate the strawberries on top and then stopped.
Moreover, Bai Ge clearly noticed that she was getting restless, and her little bottom had been constantly changing position since the beginning.
"Alright, since Seele wants to eat it, I'll show off my skills too. No one in my family used to want to eat spicy food, so I never had a chance to make it."
"Really? Yay~ As expected of Father, Seele will be looking forward to it." Dark Seele's eyes lit up and she immediately jumped off Bai Ge's lap.
Her preferences in all aspects are the opposite of White Seele's.
Bai Xi likes reading and sweet snacks, but she is timid by nature.
Hei hope likes spicy snacks and has a bold personality.
However, even though one is black and the other is white, they are essentially the same person, so they cherish the same things.
Half an hour later, Bai Ge, who had just finished cooking, came over with a plate of fragrant spicy potato pancakes.
Although it's a simple snack that I make regularly, this one was made specifically for Hei hope. I added a suitable amount of chili powder, and although the main ingredient is potatoes, it has a meaty texture.
Dark Seele subconsciously licked her lips. The rich spicy aroma made her mouth water. Without hesitation, she picked up a piece and put it in her mouth, immediately showing a look of enjoyment.
"Mmm~ This is the taste, it's delicious."
"I'm glad Seele likes it, but she shouldn't eat too much. After all, lunch is coming up soon. By the way, how about we add Mapo Tofu to our meal today?"
"Really? Then I'll have to look forward to it, Father." Dark Seele raised an eyebrow and gave herself a thumbs up for deciding to take over White Seele's body last night.
Although she can share memories with Seele.
But ultimately it's just sharing.
It's difficult for two people with different personalities to synchronize their emotions, so this was the first time she experienced the doting affection from Bai Ge Dad, and she suddenly understood why her own personality was that of a super father-obsessed person.
"Hmm? Seele, what are you eating? Have one for me too!"
Just then, Malt, who was passing by the living room, also smelled the aroma and walked over out of curiosity, only to see Dark Seele enjoying a spicy potato pancake.
The two didn't get along well, and because Seele was weak-willed, it was mostly Xing who bullied her. Although Bai Ge tried to mediate many times, the effect was minimal.
However, he also figured out the general idea.
The main reason is that Amy Malt likes Bronya, but Bronya likes Seele, so the former is jealous of the latter, which leads to the occasional bullying.
Of course, the three of them liked Bai Ge the most.
"Hmph! Who do you think you are, daring to steal my snacks? Get lost!"
"...ha?!"
Xing felt a sharp pain on the back of her hand. Seele slapped her hand away from the spicy potato pancake. Xing'er's eyes widened in shock as she thought to herself, "How could I have been yelled at by this coward?"
She was always the one bullying Seele. This timid and inconspicuous girl always hid behind Bronya Bai Ge Dad, crying all the time.
But now she's actually been hit by Seele.
"You idiot Seele, how dare you hit my hand?!"
"Hmph~ What? Do you want me to slap you in the face?"
"What the hell—!"
"It's a good opportunity to settle old scores with that crybaby."
It looked like the two were about to start fighting.
Bai Ge quickly grabbed the two girls by the scruff of their necks, one in each hand. How dare they openly fight in front of Bai? Where was his authority as a father?
After being lectured, the two exchanged a glance, snorted, and turned to leave. Clearly, they had taken up the feud, and the meaning in their eyes was clear. "Wait until Bai Ge Dad is gone, and I'll teach you a lesson."
Bai Ge sighed helplessly and gave Bronya a look, signaling her to keep a closer eye on things from now on.
"Bronya will support these two, but... Bai Ge Dad, Seele is really strange today, completely opposite to her Seele personality."
"Yes, that's right."
The two looked at Hei hope, who had already gone outside and was walking around, and talked to her. This girl had joined the other children in a snowball fight, and her healthy laughter was full of energy.
The other girls in the Hearth Home were also taken aback by Hei Xi. They didn't expect that the most well-behaved girl in the house could be so fierce when she let loose, but they all played along with her with great enthusiasm... In the end, Hei Xi took care of them all by herself.
"Such strong reflexes and movements... She really isn't Seele, is she? And she's even using Honkai Energy? Bai Ge Dad, what exactly happened to Seele?"
"... It's a bit difficult to explain, but don't worry, it's beneficial to Seele's future. It's similar to having a split personality. Don't worry, Bronya, no matter what personality Seele has, she's still Seele. We don't need to make any changes."
"Okay, Bronya understands."
Bronya nodded expressionlessly. Since Bai Ge Dad said so, then there must be no problem.
Moreover, Seele's completely different personality made her feel a lot of freshness.
As for the dual personality thing, isn't that just like having double Seele and double the fun? What a steal!
So although Dark Seele's appearance caused a minor shock to the Hearth Home, perhaps thanks to the girl's excellent interpersonal skills, no one distanced themselves from her.
Apart from Xing, everyone else was curiously gathered around Seele, asking her all sorts of questions, leaving Dark Seele, who always defined herself as a villain, at a loss for how to respond.
I thought I was just too good at acting to be noticed.
... After going to bed at night...
"Are you satisfied now? Can you give my body back to me, my other self?"
"What's the rush? You've only spent a day playing around outside. Don't forget, I am you, and you are me. There is no real difference between us."
Within the girl's mental space.
This is a space that can extend indefinitely, with a floor that is black and white checkered like a chessboard.
Two girls with similar appearances but completely opposite personalities are sitting on two chairs, one blue and one red.
The person sitting on the blue chair is White Seele, who has a strong personality.
The one on the red chair is the Dark Seele of Seele.
"No, it's different. I wouldn't do that to Bai Ge Dad."
"Ha! It's because you're too weak that you've always failed. How can you possibly let Father know how you feel about him if you're so timid? You crybaby Seele, always thinking about marrying Bai Ge Dad ~~"
"No, stop talking, I, I didn't."
"Hmph~ Look at your cowardly appearance. If I were to take action, I would definitely win over Father in just a few days. Hehe, then everyone in the family will have to call you Seele's Mom, right?"
"Waaaah! I really don't want that kind of thing!"
White Seele curled up in the chair, her hands covering her head. She couldn't imagine what the Hearth Home would become if it really was as her other self had said. It would definitely Honkai!
No, I don't want that kind of thing. White Seele admits that she does have those kinds of fantasies, but it's just a thought. Right now, she feels that maintaining the status quo is enough.
"Give me your body for another day tomorrow, I haven't had enough fun yet. The snowball fight today was so much fun, but it would have been even better if we could have had a real one~ The Mapo Tofu at noon was also good, I'll ask Father to make it again tomorrow."
Hei hope said, propping her head up with her legs crossed. She had a very pleasant day. She had only planned to spend one day getting some fresh air, but now she wanted to play for a few more days.
"No, no, we agreed on a one-day deal, and... I know you're dangerous. When Xing tried to take the spicy potatoes from you today, you had some dangerous thoughts, didn't you?" Bai hope refused.
"I have to say, as expected of the consciousness that shares the same body with me, you actually managed to discover me. You're right, Seele, I am indeed in great danger, so... what do you want?"
"I... I will tell Bai Ge Dad about what happened to you!" Seele said, trying to look directly at the other version of herself in front of her.
Although Anne always bullies her, they just don't get along. Even so, they are still family, and sisters in the Hearth Home who are closer than outsiders.
But the other self didn't have this idea.
She really showed murderous intent towards Xing today, so Seele no longer dares to let her appear in public with her body exposed.
Dark Seele also raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
She knew very well how weak and cowardly the other version of herself was, a coward who couldn't do anything, but she never expected to suddenly become so much stronger on this topic.
"Hmph~ Do you really dare to tell that person about my affairs?"
"What do you mean by 'the other me'?"
"You said it yourself, I am another you, the other side hidden in your heart, arrogant, evil, powerful. I am a monster, but that means you are a monster too, after all, we are Seele are one with one heart."
